Re: [Sugar-devel] GSoC 2015 : Music Blocks

2015-03-12 Thread Yash Khandelwal
Thanks James for liking it. In my previous mockup, for the same melody, the 
pitch and time signature blocks can be placed in play block itself. Also, 'Re' 
inside the loop strike the note for four times ( in Hot Cross Buns Melody 
example). The idea was very primitive, to improve upon it I came up with how 
user will define notes shorter than the unit time. This is how it goes, there 
can be a block for each standard bar, and inside that block we can put the 
notes(as action blocks). This can meet up our requirement, shown in the mockup 
2 link.  So, the number of notes inside a bar block, can be automatically 
played according to their note value (For example: If time signature is two 
four time then the Mi and Re present in a bar block inside the chunk will be 
both quarter notes). Also, in regard of moving from monophony to polyphony, I 
think it can be done using web audio API, by creating multiple oscillators and 
amplifiers. I found the following links useful :

 I like it.

Your mockup shows a musical form of composition, e.g. ABA.

In your mockup, Pitch and Time Signature blocks could be removed from
Chunk A and Chunk B and placed in Play, is that right?

Does the Re inside loop strike the note four times, or hold it it for
four unit times?

How would the user define notes shorter than the unit time?

Can you move from monophony to polyphony by calling two chunks at the
same time?
